The Juniper SRX Services Gateway VPN must renegotiate the IKE security association after 24 hours or less.

Description
When a VPN gateway creates an IPsec Security Association (SA), resources must be allocated to maintain the SA. These resources are wasted during periods of IPsec endpoint inactivity, which could result in the gateway’s inability to create new SAs for other endpoints, thereby preventing new sessions from connecting. The Internet Key Exchange (IKE) idle timeout may also be set to allow SAs associated with inactive endpoints to be deleted before the SA lifetime has expired, although this setting is not recommended at this time. The value of one hour or less is a common best practice.

Who does this work

7 NICE work roles and 5 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-214670r856574_chk)

Review all IPsec security associations configured globally or within IPsec profiles on the VPN gateway and examine the configured idle time. The idle time value must be one hour or less. If idle time is not configured, determine the default used by the gateway. The default value is 28800 seconds which is compliant. [edit] show security ike proposal View the value of the lifetime-seconds option. If the IKE security associations are not renegotiated after 24 hours or less of idle time, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-15869r297598_fix)

Specify the lifetime (in seconds) of an IKE security association (SA). When the SA expires, it is replaced by a new SA, the security parameter index (SPI), or terminated if the peer cannot be contacted for renegotiation. Example: [edit] set security ike proposal <P1-PROPOSAL-NAME> lifetime-seconds 86400
